<p>I’m a big fan of Tiffany’s too. I’ve given that initial necklace to my sister (but have never gotten one 
). I think my friend is leaning toward the piece of jewelry concept, and likes the idea of it officially coming from her husband.</p>
<p>A laptop or an iPhone ifnshe doesn’t have a good recent model of either of these.</p>
<p>In addition to all these very charming and memorable gifts:</p>

<p>We gave our daughter a really lovely Tiffany silver ball/heart necklace. Funny thing was, there were about 3 other parents looking for the same thing! And another two for different birthdays! So, while I was there I got older D the classic linked necklace with “return to tiffany” heart for her 25th.</p>
<p>I think you can never go wrong with jewelry - BUT I wouldnt suggest going too expensive because they have a tendency to lose or misplace (or stolen). Let’s just say never buy anything that would make you cringe if it disappeared or that you’d be afraid for her to wear. For older D’s 18th - we got her a fairly expensive ring on the caveat that she rarely take it off and if she wasn’t wearing it that it went back in the box preferrably hidden (when she had dubious roommates).</p>
<p>Good point, Moda.</p>
